TV – Lopez Sunday Nights

Lopez Tonight may be gone forever, but George Lopez lives on with a marathon of the classic 2000s sitcom every Sunday night from 8:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. on ION Television.

I didn’t watch this show during its original run, and having discovered it in reruns the last few years, I wish I had. It’s a charming little show in which George balances his work and family life with hilarious results.

Series executive producer Sandra Bullock occasionally appears as George’s aviation company coworker Accident Amy. It’s also nice to see what zaniness Nick Offerman was up to before Parks and Recreation.

George Lopez is somewhat like a Latino-American version of Everybody Loves Raymond, so if you loved Ray, you’ll love George.
